The
Work Of Director ANTON CORBIJN
The music video directors selected
for these brilliant Directors Series DVDs are not your run of the mill,
generic, basic dance video peddlers. They each have an artistic vision and amazing
visual sense, enhancing the music of the band or artists who want pictures added
to their music. Anton
Corbijn is
largely known as the Dutch photographer who became Depeche
Mode's visual
collaborator. This has included everything from photos and music videos to album
covers and live stage design & projections. His love for grainy black & white
has been utilized in many band promo clips (Joy
Division),
while others get stark use of colour (Nirvana).
This DVD contains a range of his music videos. Depeche Mode is here of course
with a few clips, as well as the abovementioned groundbreakers. Earlier alternative
bands like Propaganda,
Echo & The
Bunnymen,
Golden Earring
and David
Sylvian are
also here. Other high profile acts include U2,
Joni Mitchell & Peter Gabriel, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Henry Rollins, Metallica,
Travis, and
The Killers.
Lesser known names comprise of Herbert
Grönemeyer, Mercury Rev, and
Joseph Arthur.
You also get interviews, commentaries, a docy on Anton (NotNa) and extra
stuff like the making of a U2
video, Depeche
Mode tour
projections, a Front
242 video,
and hilarious MTV promos with Dave
Grohl and
Beck.
